Booth Photography Guild

The Booth Photography Guild offers educational opportunities related to all aspects of digital photography. The Guild is open to anyone interested in photography – no matter his or her skill level. Monthly meetings are held on the second Saturday of each month from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm at Booth Western Art Museum (gates will open at 9:30 am). Membership in BPG is $24 per year in addition to Booth Museum Membership. For more information call (770) 387-1300 or email info@boothphotographyguild.org.

The BPG was founded in late 2010 in conjunction with a group of interested and experienced photography members of Booth Museum. The Guild continues to grow with over 150 members from all areas of Atlanta and north Georgia. Through its museum affiliation, the Guild is able to provide programming of a national scale. A professionally juried Photography Exhibit is held annually at the museum for three months. The monthly meetings include critiques of members’ work by a professional photographer, hands-on classes, as well as lectures by visiting photographers. Periodically, workshops and classes on post processing software are offered. A Booth Photography Guild Lecture Series is held in the museum theatre three times annually. Mentoring is a strong part of the Guild’s mission.
